operational guidance (version numbers from the Chrome Releases blog, Nov 9, 2026)

Tip: after a Chrome zero-day, check what version is actually running, not what's installed

  • Managed fleets: use the Chrome browser cloud management or your EDR's software inventory to list running versions, and set the RelaunchNotification and RelaunchNotificationPeriod policies to force a restart within hours.
  • Spot check: chrome://version or chrome://settings/help shows the running build.
  • Don't forget Chromium-based browsers and desktop apps that embed their own Chromium; they patch on their vendor's schedule.
